[Mayim de Vries · Rating 3 out of 5]

Clear and precise introductory text into FPA.

[Robert · Rating 2 out of 5]

Eh, pretty basic stuff here. Probably designed for eager young things in summer institutes, Breuning's text (very much a remedial textbook-like structure, complete with chapter summary and questions) often reads as a professorial apologia, justification of 'foreign policy analysis' in order to avoid departmental cuts: Why My Class Matters in seven simple chapters.

[Cristi Vlas · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great for beginner IR students.
It offers a sufficiently sophisticated bibliography for further readings into the basics of foreign policy analysis.
The second half of the book seemed to have many mispellings and grammar mistakes.

[Daniel Triparmadi · Rating 4 out of 5]

In-depth analysis applicable to modern political landscape.

ব্যক্তিগত নোট:
পরীক্ষায় পাশ করতে চাই বলে এখন এতো তাড়াহুড়ো করেও অবশেষে পড়ে শেষ করলাম এটা। তাই জানিনা- বইটা ঠিক কেমন। মেবি ভালোই হবে। আপাতত কোনো ধারণা নাই। সেজন্যই মাঝামাঝি গিয়ে দিলাম = ৩ স্টার।

An amazing summary of what Foreign Policy is all about
